Helland-Hansen Shoulder (85°26′S 168°10′W) is a mainly ice-covered ridge which extends southward from the west portion of Mount Fridtjof Nansen and overlooks the northern side of the head of Axel Heiberg Glacier in Antarctica. It was discovered in 1911 by Roald Amundsen and named by him for Professor Bjørn Helland-Hansen, of the University of Oslo, Norway.
